More transmission problems

Hey all, as some of you may remember I've been having problems with my tranny grinding into 3rd gear at WOT. That problem has steadily been getting worse, but now its doing something else that seems odd. When I'm on the highway in 5th gear cruising at 70mph or anywhere around there, I hear a faint grinding type sound coming from the shifter area. It stays pretty constant unless you let off the gas. What could be causing this?

Thanks!

Have you had your car in for the T3650 TSB? There is a service kit free of charge to be installed on all T3650 trannys to get rid of a lot of strange grinding and clunking.

I believe it applies to all vehicles with the TR3650 transmission (01-04). 00/earlier models have the T45.

I haven't had the TSB done on my tranny. What does this service kit include?

Most dealers can perform the transmission flush youre talking about, it runs detergents and clean oil through the whole system to make sure its all clean. It can be expensive though.. If you cant do that, a good routine fluid change is better than nothing.

Rear end fluid you can do yourself if you're fairly experienced. Just remove the dif. cover,clean, reassemble and fill. Heres a writeup:

Now I have a question for those of you who have already had this TSB performed. How long was the car in the shop for, and did it feel better afterward?

Thanks!
